It seems, dear friends, that our development team has succumbed to Minecraft addiction.

Constructive Criticism is the most useful. If I tear apart your work it's not because I don't like it, it's because I do. If a user's Comment or Post is useful to you, Make sure to give them "Thanks!".

I haven't played it either. Is there a trial or anything? the site wanted my money =(

There's a free version that is playable ("Minecraft classic"). I've been playing this for almost an hour and I think I've done more or less everything this version of the game had to offer, built myself a cabin, built bridges, carved and built staircases into underground caves, dug into magma, flooded said caves and cooled the magma, built a babel tower with a staircase... It's fun for goofing around but there isn't that much to it. What it does, however, is show off the potential of the full version with the monsters attacking you and the multiplayer part.

I'm still not sure what this was doing on the TF2 blog, though.
especially the payload map :facepalm:

Yeah, there is a trial on the site, but it's not nearly as fun or as much content as the paid version (which gets you all Alpha and Beta releases, as well as the final version). Note that the game is still in Alpha and people are already having fun with it. This game has so much potential.

Seems a bit rude to the real mappers no? We spend all our time telling people not to use HL2 textures, and be more tf2 styled, blah blah blah. Blog comes out: Make a weirdass theme mario cart map, hurp de durp, its so great lolz.

I hadn't watched the video of the map before. Just did. I puked a little in my mouth.

What? Have you seen any screenshots of Minecraft? The map looks exactly like it. Sure the map shouldn't be official or anything, but it looks pretty good (in terms of capturing the look of Minecraft).

Why are you guys so angry about this? Valve is posting about an amazing game, made by one man, that is fun in it's alpha stage. And you're angry because someone's map got officialized, but Valve didn't gush all over it? Sorry, but I don't see the problem.

Again, no one said this is going official or anything. It's just a neat map that captures the look of a fun game. It's not "herp de derp random textures", it's meant to capture the look of another game.
